MobileMonday and Estonian Design Center are proud to announce that on 7th of February we'll meet-up again, and this time together with Estonian designers!

When talking about design most of us might consider visual aspects of design like graphical design or weird shapes we happen to see for example in new buildings and furniture. But design is much more.

The mobile services we happen to use or the way we handle our phone talks the language of design - the intention of a service or a product designer to shape our everyday life or behavioral patterns.

While going about our lives or everyday concerns, we might not think that there is a man behind the service design of Mobile-ID or there is a person behind the initial idea how to layout the buttons and tabs for TaxiPal's recent mobile app. But there is – there are designers who's job it is to think from a perspective of an app or service user – how to make the experience less time-consuming, more effective or pleasant.

On 7th of February we'll meet these people in person. We'll see and hear what service or user experience design is about and how we could bend it to our needs to create better and more successful services and apps.

This time the program and schedule of the event will also have a more practical orientation and give you hands-on experience on service design concepts in a fun way MoMo workshops have always worked out.
